What’s going on at right back for Arsenal?

So we have a Sunday morning in which there's an Emirates Cup on the horizon later on this afternoon and probably a little more Pepe chatter until something breaks like a 'spotted at Arsenal' or 'medical set for x date' or something similar. After my later post yesterday there was some noises about PSG possibly [...]

Deals done, but opportunities missed at Q&A?

Morning folks. You know how they say "slow news day?" When there's the square root of b*gger all going on I. The Arsenal world? Well, I think it's safe to say that yesterday was not one of those days! First we had the confirmation of Ceballos and Saliba from the club and with it cake [...]

Madness against Madrid; empty seats against Lyon?

As I've been saying all summer there's very little that you can take from these friendly matches other than who's at what stage of their development, but it looked like it was one heck of a crazy game against Madrid last night, especially when you have sendings off in friendlies. I didn't watch the match [...]

Ceballos move is shrewd for all parties

Morning all and before I get in to the usual stuff, if you received a barrage of old blogs from me yesterday into your inbox/social media feed, many apologies. The Wordpress app on my phone had a bit of a meltdown - probably because we haven't signed anyone - and suddenly started reposting every blog [...]

The kids impress against Fiorentina, but so do some of the senior players

So it appears as though this summer is going well from a results perspective, eh? A 3-0 victory against Fiorentina, another 'W' on the board and some encouraging performances from some players, I have to say. Take Saka, for example, who looked good in small flashes last season but really impressed in yesterday's game. He [...]

Saliba sorted, but the Sven situation doesn’t add up

Howdy all and welcome to another ore season Saturday and it's a Saturday in which I'm sure you've already seen yourselves, but we appear to finally got the Saliba deal over the line, so all that remains to be seen is for us to announce it. I suspect it'll be a low-key affair. After all [...]

I really WANT Özil to come good and here’s why you should too

Morning all. Now, I know that for some people today's blog topic will be divisive and before even reading a single sentence there will be people slagging me off on social media, purely because of the headline and not because of what I'm about to say, because that's how social media works. People won't read [...]

One month on: Starting to lose my sh*t with Arsenal

By |2019-07-13T12:06:34+01:00July 13th, 2019|Arsenal Transfers, finances, Ownership and the board, pre season, Rant, youth|6 Comments

About a month ago I think I wrote a piece which said something broadly along the lines of "it's only June people, we don't need to lose our collective sh*t just yet". We were just a few weeks after the Europa League Final, it appeared as though there were a few targets who were being [...]

Koscielny’s actions show how much of a mess we’re in

By |2019-07-12T10:49:21+01:00July 12th, 2019|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, contracts, Defence, Ownership and the board, pre season, Rant|2 Comments

Arsenal feels like an absolute hot mess at the moment, doesn't it? We've had a quiet and pretty lacklustre summer - as usual - and the club seems to be messing up transfers left, right and centre, but to add insult to injury we also have players actively pushing to jump ship. Yesterday's announcement by [...]
